Shincheonji bible - Creation of heaven & earth, and creation of new heaven & new earth

Creation of heaven & earth, and
creation of new heaven & new earth


 Main references: Gn 1, Rv 21, Jn 1:1-5

What is the creation of heaven and earth in Gn 1? What is the creation of new heaven and new earth in Rv 21?
The creation of heaven and earth in Gn 1 figuratively uses the creation of the physical world and prophesies about the creation of the spiritual world. The creation of the new heaven and new earth in Rv 21 is also a prophecy regarding the creation of the spiritual world. Hence, both passages refer to the same content. The creation will happen in such a way at an appointed time.

God first showed what was created in heaven so that it will be created here on earth as well (Mt 6:10). This is why Moses first saw what was in heaven and then created what he had seen here on earth (Ex 25; Heb 8).
Roughly 2,000 years after Adam’s fall, God spoke to Moses the accounts of Genesis.
The Israelites became fruitful and increased in number just as it was written in Gn 1, and afterwards, he commanded them to subdue and rule over the land of Canaan.

There is God’s creation in heaven and on earth. There are the sun, moon, stars, winds, clouds, rain, and air in the sky. There is all creation on earth. All creation in heaven exists in space. It is only on the earth in the globe that living creatures exist. The living creatures were created by the creator, who is also a living being, through his life (the word) (Jn 1:1-4). The devil, the adversary of God, wants to kill and harm these living creatures. For such a reason, God made known life and death [to people].

The world God created is truly awe-inspiring. There is a light from the sun during the daytime, and there is light from the moon and stars during the night time. There are clouds and flying birds in the sky. There are animals, grass, and plants on earth. Beautiful flowers bloom. It rains and snows on earth. In the sea there are several different kinds of fish swimming. Alluring coral creates breathtaking scenery inside the sea. It is such a joy and an honor to be part of this wonderful scenery and to be able to live together with all creation all year round.

God’s creation is absolutely stunning and marvelous. It is heaven. In the harmony of heaven and earth, and in the midst of all creation, I, too, become a delightful being. I become a flower, and I become a butterfly. In fact, I am more precious than any flowers or butterflies. I’d like to become a living being of love just like the light, rain, and air that are needed by all creation. I’d like to emit the true aroma of the living flower, and I’d like to become an eternal joy for all creation that everyone misses, seeks, waits for, and needs. To my beloved friend, all creation! To my friends, unchanging and beautiful flowers! Let us live together with a love that never has to say goodbye. Let us eternally thank and thank again our creator and glorify and sing of him with our beautiful aroma! Singing like birds, dancing like butterflies, smiling like charming flowers, shinning like flowing streams, being like the morning smiles, and smiling like the angelic and radiant moon, I’d like to smile, bloom, and live with my friend in all creation forever, and give thanks to our Lord. We will love each other just like God and Jesus.

All creation is God’s grand farming. All things in heaven and on earth are magnificent. After the trampling enemies are seized and locked up, we will live with all creation for eternity in Shinchonji. Shinchonji has become the leaves of the tree of life, and it is healing all things. We will neither fall down like Adam’s world, nor will we get destroyed like Noah’s world. We will neither betray like the Israelites, the world of Moses, nor will we become corrupt like the Spiritual Israelites, the previous heaven. We will live in Shinchonji, the eternally beautiful heaven, the new heaven where flowers are blooming and we are smiling.

It is God who has promised. It is also God who has fulfilled and created. God has established the promise of creating, and he has created the new heaven and new earth, the eternal paradise and heaven, according to his promise. God, heaven, and the angels will come to the new heaven and new earth here on earth. God will also bring with him the spirits of the dead (1 Cor 15:22-23). It will be a wonderful world where we can all meet with them and live with them. It will be heaven where there is no more death and pain (Rv 21:1-4). The previous world has passed away, and the new heaven and new earth, the kingdom of the quiet new morning, has been launched. People who have received the same blood and the same seed, and who have been born again to be God’s sons and daughters by transcending any national borders, races, and religions, are new creatures. They are the children of God’s kingdom. It is the kingdom of love where everyone loves one another with the grace of life just like the light, rain, and air from the sky!

It is said that cuckoos shed their blood from their necks to feed their babies. The Lord has also fed us his own blood, and he has granted us the resurrection of life by crossing us from death to life. We look at all things in heaven and on earth. All things that the Lord has created are fascinating, and they are genuine and good. To the family of heaven, the world of paradise and the new heaven and earth, let us love one another. Is it not the love of God, who created all things? Since we love all things, and all things love us, it is heaven. Let us become new creatures that burst the flowers of love together.

I am beautiful when I smile out of joy. I am beautiful when I sing, when I dance, and when I smile like flowers in full bloom. May God help me become a beautiful and unchanging flower in the new heaven and new earth, the new world promised by God, the creator. May he help me become a gift to my loving Lord by becoming that flower.

Every moment I daydream, and every moment I think, the world of paradise enters into my heart. The image of God, the smiling Lord enters into my heart. Rough and tough days have all disappeared. I cannot help but dance for the Sabbath-rest. I will become an eternal flower of love, a breath and joy for all things in the world of paradise.
